A recent performance with the New York Arabic Orchestra. My first time playing this piece, such a nice composition in a relatively rare maqam - thought some of you might enjoy it.

Great performance, Brian! I am so bummed I missed this concert, basically learned about it too late. Looks like it was sold out too.

Thanks, guys!
Amir, that would have been great to meet in person! Sorry you couldn't make it - it sold out really quickly. But I think they will have us back in 2024, I'll try to give a heads up if we schedule something.
